A pregnancy test performed on the same date as a preventive service may be reported separately using the CPT code appropriate to the test (e.g., 81025, âUrine pregnancy test, by visual color comparison methodsâ) and a diagnosis code from the V72.4X series (pregnancy examination or test).
This process is called continental drift. The plates move because of convection currents in the Earth's mantle. These are driven by the heat produced by the decay of radioactive elements and heat left over from the formation of the Earth.
The movement of these tectonic plates is likely caused by convection currents in the molten rock in Earthâs mantle below the crust. Earthquakes and volcanoes are the short-term results of this tectonic movement. The long-term result of plate tectonics is the movement of entire continents over millions of years (Fig.
